Chapter 311 The realm of Chinese cuisine
At the mouth of the fried egg, Lu Xuejia felt that her whole heart was about to melt. She had never thought that the food could taste so delicious.
"No wonder even Ma Qiushuang couldn't say anything to refute. This fried egg is so delicious that it makes people unable to pick on it." Lu Xuejia secretly exclaimed in her heart.
After eating this breakfast, Ma Qiushuang became much silent. She went to the kitchen with Lu Xuejia to see Li Mu and found that the entire kitchen was filled with various ingredients, and Li Mu was busy inside.
"Is there any place we can help?" Lu Xuejia asked.
"No, the ingredients are processed by yourself to make satisfactory dishes. Just wait for the lunch banquet." Li Mu said with a smile.
"Do you have to make these ingredients yourself into food?" Ma Qiushuang asked at Li Mu with a strange look on her face.
"Of course, except for wine and other things, I made all the things you eat at the banquet later." Li Mu said.
Ma Qiushuang left the kitchen with Lu Xuejia back to the living room with a complicated expression. Lu Xuejia had just turned on the computer and wanted to go online to see something when he suddenly heard Ma Qiushuang say, "Xuejia, I'm a little jealous of you now."
Lu Xuejia was stunned for a moment: "Why did you suddenly say such words?"
"Young, rich, and have such good cooking skills. You are not bad at all and have a good personality. Why don't I have such childhood sweethearts?" Ma Qiushuang said with a wry smile.
"Why are you suddenly..." Lu Xuejia looked at Ma Qiushuang in disbelief, really unable to believe that this was said from Ma Qiushuang's mouth.
"I used to be a little prejudiced to Li Mu, but now I really have nothing to say. Apart from being a little less handsome, he is really perfect. If it were me, I would come to him like you." Ma Qiushuang said.
Lu Xuejia smiled and said to herself: "You don't know what Li Mu really touches you. If you have experienced everything I have experienced, I'm afraid you will be even more desperate than me."
Li Mu invited many friends to the banquet this time, including Zhou De.
Last night, Zhou De heard that Li Mu actually invited him to have dinner in Shicheng, and he cooked by himself. He agreed without thinking. But it was not until this morning that he remembered that he had an important date.
Zhou De's film and television company is doing well now, and now he is making more and more money in this industry, so Zhou De is preparing to make a big deal and make a big movie. For this reason, Robert, a famous Hollywood director, came to discuss some issues about asking him to direct a new film.
Robert's recent films are not considered big productions, but their reputation and box office are quite amazing. He is one of the hottest directors in Hollywood now.
Hollywood is a very realistic place, whether it is the director or the actor. What you see is not your previous grades, but your recent dramas. Therefore, many former big-name actors or directors actually cannot get high pay. Those who get high pay, like those children who play Harry Potter and the City of Midlight, can get sky-high pay.
Robert is now popular. The difficulty of asking him is naturally self-evident. Zhou De is just trying hard to convince Robert. After all, the conditions he can give are not the best. Now there are countless big bosses in Hollywood waving money and scripts. As well as the elite production team, they want to invite Robert to film.
The reason why Robert came this time was that although talking about filming with Zhou De was only secondary, Robert himself never thought of filming in such a place. It was not that the resources here were much worse than Hollywood, but that there were too many restrictions on filming here, and he did not like such a filming environment.
The reason why Robert came here was mainly because he was a foodie, and China is one of the three major food countries in the world. Robert had rare free time and came to China to enjoy the food before taking on a new film.
"Mr. Robert, I'm very sorry. I'm going to a friend's party at noon. I can't have lunch with you. I will ask my assistant to accompany you to the best French restaurant." Zhou De also discovered that Robert did not seem to really want to talk to him about filming, so he was too lazy to socialize with Robert again, so it would be better to go to Li Mu's place to have a good meal.
"I wonder what kind of banquet you are going to attend?" After hearing Zhou De's words, Robert couldn't help frowning slightly. He was very dissatisfied with Zhou De's attitude. The most important thing is, why did he come to China to eat French cuisine?
"It's a family gathering for good friends, and they eat some home-cooked dishes he made by himself." Zhou De responded casually, not knowing how the translation was translated.
"It's your local dish. Can I go to that banquet together?" Robert immediately showed an interesting expression. For a foodie, being able to eat the most authentic local taste is undoubtedly the greatest happiness.
Gourmets like Robert naturally know that even a local restaurant may not be able to produce local flavors. The most original and authentic local flavor is undoubtedly the dishes made by ordinary families themselves.
"If you don't dislike it, of course there is no problem." Zhou De was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Robert to make such a request.
Zhou De called Li Mu and said he wanted to take a friend there. Li Mu agreed happily. Anyway, he cooked a lot of dishes, so it would be no problem for a few more people to come. It would be a waste to eat it.
Moreover, if you only eat one meal, it is actually not very helpful to your physical fitness, so Li Mu naturally doesn't mind Zhou De bringing people here.
Because some friends need to work during the day, fewer people come at noon, and many people will come at night, so Li Mu prepares relatively fewer food dishes at noon.
When Zhou De brought Robert over, because it was early, not many people came over. Xiaoshan Meihui, Nana, Humei, Yu Xiaoyu, Bai Jie and others just came over.
There were already a lot of prepared food on the table. Because Li Mu was looking for his own people, everyone was not too reserved and had already started to taste the food. After tasting it, they couldn't stop and kept putting various foods into their mouths.
After looking at the food that was placed on it, Robert was a little disappointed. Although there were a lot of food here, it was completely different from the authentic local flavor he imagined.
Many dishes are often seen in many restaurants, such as seafood. Robert has eaten so many times. He can tell at a glance that the seafood is a popular product that can be found everywhere and is the kind that can be bought all over the world.
For Robert, who came with expectations, he was naturally disappointed when he saw such a dish and his appetite decreased a lot.
"Brother De, why do you have foreign friends?" Li Mu, who had finished his work, came out of the kitchen and was slightly surprised to see Li Mu bringing a foreigner over.
"This is Mr. Robert, the great Hollywood director. I originally wanted to accompany him to have a meal. Today, I will bring him to have a meal." Zhou De smiled.
"It's okay to come and have a free meal, but don't bring outsiders next time. The dishes I cook are not something that anyone can eat." Although it's not a big problem to eat once or twice, Li Mu doesn't want outsiders to get cheaper.
The main reason is that if someone notices that the dishes he makes have such magical effects, there will inevitably be some trouble.
"It depends on you being stingy. It's just a meal. At worst, I'll invite you to eat the most advanced dishes. All abalone bird's nests are full." Zhou De thought Li Mu was joking and said with a smile.
"Brother De, it's not that I brag. The most advanced cuisine in the world is here. Any dish here is ten thousand times better than those that claim to be the most advanced. If you treat me to abalone bird's nest, you won't make up for my losses." Li Mu was just joking with Zhou De. Although what he said was the truth, he didn't really blame Zhou De.
"Your tone is a little too big. How can you be considered the most advanced dish in the world? Not to mention the highest level, even the first-class level cannot be reached. You have already failed in the selection of ingredients." Because of the cultural differences between the East and the West, after listening to the straightforward translation, Robert did not understand that Li Mu and Zhou De were just fighting for fun because of their good relationship, so he looked at Li Mu very seriously and said.
"Just like that lobster, you can tell at a glance that it's just a Boston lobster, and it's frozen, not a fresh ingredient. I'm right?" Robert continued.
"It seems that Mr. Robert has a deep attainment in food." Li Mu looked at Robert and smiled.
"Of course, I am a person who likes food and loves Chinese food very much, but what you cook cannot be considered top-notch food." Robert said very seriously after hearing the translation.
"It seems that although Mr. Robert is a person who likes food, he does not understand the food culture and realm of China." Li Mu said lightly.
"I really want to know what your Chinese food culture and realm is. Unfortunately, there seem to be few dishes here that are your traditional Chinese dishes." Robert said.
"If we put it simply, our food culture and realm in China are just two words." Li Mu said with a smile.
"What two words?" Robert asked.
"It's delicious." Li Mu opened his mouth and spit out two words, but Robert was stunned for a moment.
Because the word "delicious" is one of the few Chinese that Robert knows, and you can understand it without any translation. In fact, it is not just Chinese. He knows the vocabulary of the word "delicious" in many languages. Because when he enjoys delicious food around the world, when he eats delicious food that makes him happy, he will sincerely praise the other party so that the other party can directly understand his meaning, so he learned the word "delicious" in many languages.
